Toasty Volume 2 is available for pre-order now. This all new collection of nine accessories designed in Baa Ram Ewe Titus showcases Rachel's feel for cables and colourwork.

If you're off to Yarndale this weekend however, you won't have to wait by the door for the postman. Pop by Stall 98 in the Auction Mart and you will be able to get your hands on your own copy. You'll also find lots of other treats for knitters, from other Coop Knits books to the coolest badges and project bags around.

Here's hoping for a cold winter to give every excuse for wrapping up in a Toasty hat and mitts.
